Six hoodlums attacked him and one hit him over the head with something that made him temporarily lose his sight. 宮力 Gōng Lì defended himself well, knocked one unconscious, broke the ribs of another, etc. When 宮力 Gōng Lì's eyesight returned, he saw the thugs strewn about and the conscious ones beating a hasty retreat. Although he should not have allowed himself to get hit on the head from behind, 宮力 Gōng Lì successfully used his skills to defend himself when needed.
